    Nespresso coffee. I have them black with water (so Americano style) omg I could have 10 a day but I have to restrain myself

    This may sound dumb, but what's nespresso coffee? Is it just a brand?

    Yea it's a pod you just pop into the machine for instant espresso. It is super fast and yummy.. haha

    Currently it's my reduced calorie version of Knorr Spinach dip. I've been eating it with a fork instead of as a dip.

    PB2 - the weird part is I don't particularly like peanut butter, but I can't get enough PB2 powder. Must be a texture thing.

    Melons. I can eat endless amounts of watermelon or cantaloupe. Lately it's been sugar kiss melon and Honey Kiss melon. Can't stop, won't stop.

    I get like that with this chocolate chai tea. It says zero calories but I'm skeptical that it must have some and I can easily drink 10 bags a day lol

    OMG yeah PB2 is huge for me too. I also like it better than peanut butter. I make it kind of funny and use the it as a sauce. It's so good on roasted sweet potato!

    Homemade baked chicken nuggets is the one thing i quickly found out I can't play portion control with.

    Can't eat store-bought or fast-food chicken nuggets, as I always found them "eww", but if I make a batch it's going to get eaten asap... a whole large tray...one whole chicken breast, by myself! So yeah, I'm trying to forget the recipe!

    i'm in this weird limbo state right now around red delicious apples. i'm honestly over them. i'm honestly tired of eating them, honestly feel like i've done my apple-eating chores and i just don't want to be faced with another one. except when i don't have them for a day or two, i want them. i'm just kind of done eating them.

    idk how to describe it. it's weird.

    Peter pan honey roasted peanut butter, nutella, cashews, pistachios, pecans, hard parmesan and extra sharp cheddar. I can keep all of these in my house, but once I start eating them I don't stop.

    Tomato basil Triscuits. Or really any kind of box of crackers.... soo easy for me to just pick away at the box until realizing I've eaten the whole thing. :P

    Nuts: all kinds, raw, roasted, salted, plain, but not sweet. If they're anywhere in the vicinity of our house they won't be there next day.

    Vegetables: most kinds, any preparation method, cooked or raw. They're pretty cheap here but I go through pounds a day so they still end up taking up considerable room in my budget. Thankfully they're low in calories.

    Cheese: most kinds except the pungent variety, I stomp my feet a bit whenever I have to tell myself "enough", but thankfully I manage. Still addictive.

    Sweetened condensed milk: If a can is opened consider it gone. Oddly enough, if I don't open the can I'm pretty relaxed around it. So I have it in my pantry but I think more than twice before opening one and only do when it's an ingredient in a recipe. I do sneak a taste before using, but at least it isn't an entire can.

    Tomatoes: raw. I felt I needed to single them out and not count them towards vegetables because it's the one item that I have eaten every single eating day without fail for the past 30 something years of my life. They're low calorie so bring it on!

    Someone else mentioned goldfish crackers and man... so right! i once bought a huge carton of them (larger than my head) and my boyfriend and i demolished it in a week. yikes!

    Of course ice cream i can't really keep around, then there's any kind of little debbie snack, uncrustables pb&j, that white chocolate wonderful peanut butter by the pb co, cheese balls or puffs, and my favorite pickles! I could demolish a whole jar of the hot and spicy dill pickles by best maid, or all the vlassic butter pickles in a single sitting.

    Obviously junk like crisps and dip and greasy meals but on the slightly healthier side...

    Warm crusty bread with balsamic vinegar & olive oil to dip (especially if I've got a bowl of roasted garlic, sun dried tomatoes and olives to munch along with it), I can polish off an entire 400g loaf as a snack, French and British cheeses with biscuits, grapes and complimentary jelly (quince/cranberry/apple and walnut). Oooh and veggies sticks with proper hummus.

    On top of that a nice cuppa tea with milk and sugar, can't beat it. ;P

    Kettle Chips, Mini Cheddars, Rich Tea or Custard Cream biscuits, punnets of grapes, punnets of cherries, family-size chocolate bars, peanuts/mixed nuts, doughnuts... if any of these are in front of me, no matter how large the qty (multipacks etc.), I will eat them all, through feeling full, right through to feeling sick.

    Cream crackers and cheese, now there's a combo I can eat a LOT of!!

    • Sriracha Popcorn by POP! I will eat the whole bag without stopping unapologetically. Also, I open it from the bottom so I can get all of the salty hot goodness first...
    • Hot Cross Buns (seasonal bakery item) come in a package of 6 at my local bakery. My family better not eat any of them.
    • Fried Cheetos have to be bought in the smallest bag possible because I will eat them in one setting.
    • Barcel's Takis Nitro Habanero & Lime ... I... can't... stop....

    Nutella for me. I don't bother buying it. Other than that, i don't have banned foods in the house, but i have difficult nights sometimes trying to moderate my nightly snacks, like nuts and seeds, honey, dried cranberries, ice cream, chocolate and candy. I come back repeatedly to get handful after handful. I still maintain fine,so i guess it's fine at the end.

    cantaloupe. I can eat an entire cantaloupe over the course of the day. I really need to stop cutting them up in tidy cubes and putting it in tupperware LOL

    Sunflower seeds. Something satisfying about cracking the kernel open and spitting the husk on the ground.
